Problems with JTABLEs

Question

How can I make a non editable JTable? And...
How can I set the columns in my JTable to not be reorganizable?
I'd like someone to help me if posible.
Thanks.
Y si me lee alguien que sepa espa�ol, mi problema es:
En mi aplicaci�n uso una JTable dentro de un ScrollPane y luego visualizo la JTable que contiene unos datos que he leido de una base de datos. �Com� puedo hacer para impedir que las celdas de la tabla se puedan editar? Y... �C�mo impido que las columnas de la tabla se puedan reorganizar usando el rat�n?
Muchas gracias a todos.
Saludos.

Hi,
you should not be afraid of this column repositioning feature - the columns in your table model (your data) do not change this way - they stay on their postions, but you will have to use the getValueAt(...) method of the table model with your model indices, not that one of the JTable class, which uses column model indices.
Say, if you only want a JTable to be not editable and you have used the constructor
JTable jt = new JTable(myDataArray,myColumnNames);
to create it from an Object[][] and a String[] - you can simply use an inner class to achieve this:
DefaultTableModel m = new DefaultTableModel(myDataArray,myColumnNames) {
public boolean isCellEditable(int row,int column) { return false; }};
JTable jt = new JTable(m);
to retrieve cell data from this model use:
Object obj = m.getValueAt(row,column);
See the documentation of DefaultTableModel for more information
